Nord N10 lito - what is this, and is it supported?
-
@NoodleCollie Hello! how did you manage to downgrade? I bought a oneplus nord n10 5g fo UT, and it's a "lito" model for Tmobile. I unlocked the bootloader and tried to downgrade with MSM from the UT device page. It gives me an error !
Did you face something like this?
-
@linl please verify in fastboot what model you have and which OS package you downloaded from the UT devices page.
-
@rocket2nfinity verified that. Oneplus Nord N10 5G. The OS version is 11.0.15 BE88CB, device name: lito, model:BE2028.
The OS version took from here https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/billie/release/noble/
See, the device name in the url - billie.
I don't think there is any hardwear difference between lito and billie. It's rather a problem inside the installed ROM, which was developed for a specific carrier or vendor. My case is TMobile phone. -
@linl First, is it boot loader unlocked? If not, where did you buy it? If eBay, please see the N10 section of the forum. We've had trouble with oneplus refusing to provide a token for Metro/T-Mobile N10s. (Edit - I see you say it's boot loader unlocked)
The ROMs provided on the devices page are the correct ROM, but, there is a procedure you need to apply to convert the BE2028 to the global ROM. See the N10 forum. It requires swapping files from a BE2028 ROM with the same files in the global ROM and repackaging, then flashing the patched ROM via EDL

@linl Also, how did you get it boot loader unlocked? - Requesting a token from OnePlus? We have several people who cannot get their Metro/T-mobile model unlocked and we are still trying to find a work around and what works.

If you have the BE2028 model, you may need to update the firmware file first. I found this and was able to load it into mine but I was never able to unlock the bootloader as OnePlus wouldn't provide me an unlock token. If you do flash that via the MSM tool, make sure to unlock your bootloader again.

I know that different variants of the N100 can be unlocked by flashing its Global ROM, which is rad. Is this also confirmed on the N10 5G? I think I saw posts where someone tried this but it still didn't allow unlocked bootloader on the N10 5G (and had to request unlock token from OnePlus). I hope that is the case (N10 flash Global ROM allows user to unlock bootloader) because OnePlus is really getting on my nerves by not granting the unlock tokens like they used to. errrggghhh!
-
@iceman198 I unlocked the bootloader. It was not difficult, by the way. I wrote to the chat support, gave the SN, IMEI, Unlock code, PCB num (*#888#) and the purchase proof. They sent me the unlock file within 2 hours.
-
@turtle_racer That's the thing, this user gets approved, other users have not. Some have applied again and been approved after being denied. This is for N10 only as all N100s can be unlocked without token just by flashing the global ROM. That is not the case with the N10.
There is no consistency as to who gets approved and who does not. So, we just recommend the BE2026 variation which does not require a token.
I think OP10 and after, they will refuse to unlock, period.
-
@rocket2nfinity Yeah, OnePlus seems to be rarely granting unlock tokens these days. It's infuriating! What you wrote makes sense. Just purchase the BE2026 directly and avoid asking for the unlock token.

@linl Nice! Glad your experience went smoothly!
